Chapter 322 One Dead and One Useless
When Mrs. Chen saw the entrance to the secret room, she felt dark in front of her eyes, and simply closed her eyes and passed out.
But as a servant, Duke Zhao had no intention of paying more attention to her, and only frowned and looked at the secret room with suspicion.
Zhao Jingming was just busy leading the Jinyiwei away, and only saw Ling Chu now.
Since the breakup of the engagement, Zhao Jingming has been trying to get close to Han Yao, but she has been avoiding him, which makes him very frustrated and unwilling.
Zhao Jingming had long forgotten Ling Chu, his former fiancée.
But when he saw her now, he unexpectedly couldn't look away.
Although Ling Chu still looked unwell, like a fragile porcelain doll, people couldn't help but want to hold her in their hands and take good care of her.
That cold look clearly kept people away, but for some reason, he felt a deep attraction.
Zhao Jingming suddenly felt a murderous aura in a trance.
Suddenly startled, he came to his senses and saw the commander of the Jinyiwei looking at him coldly.
Ling Chu was expecting Duke Zhao to enter the secret room. He noticed the gaze on him and turned his head suspiciously, but he didn't see anyone staring at him.
Zhao Jingming was surprised and angry that he was attracted to Ling Chu.
At such a critical moment, how could he be fascinated by her appearance? He has always hated her. She must be unwilling to break off the engagement and use those unorthodox tricks to confuse him.
Zhao Jingming suppressed his disgust in his heart. Seeing that the young man in white had already walked towards the secret room, he was suddenly startled.
"Wait, you can't go in..."
Qingfeng waited for a long time and was already impatient. He was fooled by Mingzhen Taoist several times with his clone. If Ling Chu hadn't stopped him before, he would have taken action long ago.
Seeing that Zhao Jingming wanted to stop him, how could he take such a young boy seriously.
He glanced at him sideways and waved a spell casually.
Zhao Jingming suddenly felt a strong force rushing towards him, and was forced to rush back a few steps before being supported by Duke Zhao who was following behind.
Qingfeng had already stepped into the secret room leisurely.
Ling Chu thought of the two naked people in the secret room, and subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to call Qingfeng, but he was worried about arousing suspicion, so he could only swallow the words that came to his mouth.
Duke Zhao frowned at his son, not understanding why he wanted to stop him.
Zhao Jingming didn't bother to explain and wanted to rush over again.
Ning Chuyi gave him a look.
Wei Feng drew out the Embroidered Spring Knife with a swipe, pointed at Zhao Jingming and said coldly, "Mr. Zhao, do you know what will happen if you stop the Jinyiwei from doing their job?"
Zhao Jingming saw the murderous intent in Wei Feng's eyes clearly.
He knew that these Jinyiwei were always cold-blooded and never afraid of the powerful. If he dared to stop them, he would definitely be killed on the spot.
Seeing Zhao Jing’s face clearly showing, Wei Feng dared not move again, so Wei Feng put away the knife and followed Ning Chuyi into the secret room.
Duke Zhao didn’t care about his son and hurriedly followed him.
As he walked in, seeing the decorations in the secret room, Duke Zhao frowned more and more.
The things here were not worse than those in Duke Zhao’s mansion.
Just as he was suspicious, he suddenly heard the voice of Taoist Qingfeng, “The world is really going downhill…”
Duke Zhao suddenly saw the Jinyiwei in front of him turn around and look at him with a strange look.
Seeing him approach, they even moved to the side and made room for him.
Duke Zhao was suspicious in his heart, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the empty space left by the Jinyiwei.
He was stunned at first when he saw two naked bodies stacked on the bed.
When he saw the woman’s face again, his eyes were about to burst.
Duke Zhao was furious and rushed to the bed.
Ning Chuyi didn’t even look at him.
Seeing Ling Chu coming over here, he subconsciously dodged and blocked her sight.
At the same time, he held her shoulders and turned her back quickly.
Ling Chu was a little surprised by Ning Chuyi's behavior, but she was not interested in the naked bodies of Guo and Mingzhen Taoist, so she simply turned back with his strength.
Over there, Duke Zhao had already rushed to the bed, grabbed Mingzhen Taoist's arm and pulled him hard.
It was in a rage that Duke Zhao's strength was naturally not small. Mingzhen was finally separated from Guo, who was connected with him.
And watching his lower body being pulled away from Guo, Duke Zhao was furious.
He immediately threw Mingzhen Taoist to the ground and reached out to grab the embroidered spring knife of a Jinyiwei next to him.
The Jinyiwei was about to stop him, but saw Wei Feng gave him a wink.
The Jinyiwei paused.
Duke Zhao had already pulled his knife away.
Taoist Master Mingzhen was thrown to the ground, and finally woke up in pain.
He opened his eyes in a daze, and saw a cold light coming towards him.
Before he could see clearly, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his lower body.
A scream almost pierced everyone's eardrums.
Mingzhen bent over, covered his bloody lower body, screamed a few times, and fainted again.
Duke Zhao's eyes were red, and the knife in his hand chopped towards his neck.
Qingfeng, who was watching coldly on the side, quickly pinched a seal and blocked his knife.
Seeing Duke Zhao staring at him with anger, Qingfeng said calmly, "Marquis Huaiyuan, Mingzhen cannot be killed for the time being. He has taken away my junior sister's merit and luck, and I have to get it back first."
Ning Chuyi was still blocking Ling Chu, so Wei Feng had to say, "Marquis Huaiyuan, the Taoist priest of Chongxu Temple is suspected of treason. We have to arrest Mingzhen and interrogate him."
Although Duke Zhao was furious, he still had a trace of reason and reluctantly stopped.
Perhaps it was because of the noise, Guo woke up at this moment.
Her consciousness was still on Mingzhen, but she seemed to hear someone talking in a daze.
Guo was startled, subconsciously propped herself up on the bed and sat up.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she met the cannibalistic eyes of Zhao Guogong.
Before Guo could say a horrified cry, she saw the knife in Zhao Guogong's hand stabbing straight at her heart.
Guo fell on the bed with her eyes wide open, accompanied by a scream of blood spurting from her chest.
Her body twitched a few times, and soon there was no movement.
At this time, the stunned Zhao Jingming finally reacted, "Mother..."
Guo was naked, and Zhao Guogong didn't want his son to see it at all.
With a gloomy face, he turned his head and shouted at Zhao Jingming, "Get out!"
Zhao Jingming had never seen his father look so horrible. Although he didn't want to, he knew that Guo was not wearing clothes, so he couldn't go forward.
He could only turn around in a daze and walk out of the secret room.
Although Ling Chu was stopped by Ning Chuyi and didn't see it, she guessed what happened by hearing the noise.
Guo's fate can only be said to be her own fault.
Not only did she have an affair with Qingyang, but she was also involved with Mingzhen.
Although she was drugged, this is her house. If she didn't want to, Mingzhen would not be able to succeed as long as she shouted for help.
In the final analysis, she had a grudge against Duke Zhao and wanted to take revenge on him, which led to this fate.
